Rapid tree model reconstruction for fruit harvesting robot system based on binocular stereo vision

Abstract

In this paper, the method of spatial information extraction of tree branch was studied. The region matching method was used to get the disparity map of stereo image, extracted feature points combining with branch skeleton image by multi-segment approximation method, and calculated the spatial coordinates and the radius of branch feature points by using binocular stereo vision. Real-time model reconstruction for fruit tree has been researched on. Test proposed that each branch module was constructed by 12-prism in the coordinate origin, and then rotated twice and translated once to get correct posture, finally combined with other modules for the fruit tree model. Test has optimized extraction algorithm and matching algorithm of the branch region, improved matching rate, reduced matching errors, avoided matching confusion, accurately extracted branch spatial information and improved the success rate of robot path planning for obstacle avoidance.
